Oh this is not good. I know this is probably a “joke” (not like his undie photo “joke” but actually done to make someone laugh), but this does not bode well for Congressman Weiner.
The National Enquirer has photos of Weiner in drag. In a bra and tights. Ummmm.
Come on now, son. If you’re going to do it, at least get something that you CAN be photographed in. I mean, his slouchy socks don’t even match!
He certainly likes to show of the bod doesn’t he?
And I know a LOT Of men who have dressed up in women’s clothes. Whether for Halloween, a costume party, or just for a laugh… but put this with Weiner’s poor behavioral choices as of late and I doubt he’ll be around D.C. much longer. Even though this is just par for the course in the world of politics. TRUST ME ON THIS ONE.

How ’bout we have dinner -BusyBee
Have you ever wanted to spend some quality time with my buddy, Former President Bill Clinton? Want to ask him questions about that whole “Patient Bill Of Rights” thing? What about that last minute pardon? Well, I don’t know if you can get to ask him those things… but you might be able to spend a long lingering dinner with him
He’s putting up the opportunity for you and three of your friends to have dinner at the Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock, Arkansas.
“I’m looking forward to showing the auction winner some of my favorite exhibits and enjoying dinner with them overlooking the Arkansas River,” Clinton tells PEOPLE. “But more importantly, I look forward to the impact the winning bid will have on the work my Foundation does around the world.”
The bidding starts at $25,000.00 on Ebay today and ends December 2 and proceeds go to the Clinton Foundatio.
But don’t fall for it when he drops his fork under the table and asks you to get it for him… Just trust me on that one.

Let’s get back to work! -BusyBeeBlogger
I guess when NBC suspends you “indefinitely” it means two work days. After being “indefinitely suspended” from his MSNBC gig on Friday for breaking NBC’s rules on political donations, Keith Olbermann will be returning this afternoon.
The General Electric Co. network had originally suspended Mr. Olbermann—one of its biggest stars—indefinitely, without pay, citing NBC News policies against political donations. But in a statement, network President Phil Griffin said he had “determined that suspending Keith through and including Monday night’s program is an appropriate punishment for his violation of our policy.” He added: “We look forward to having him back on the air Tuesday night.” [WSJ]
Olbermann was suspended after the Politico reported about his breaking NBC’s rules on making political donations. Keith donated to the campaigns of three Democratic politicians, one of which made an appearance on his television show.
I don’t think anyone questions which way Olbermann leans, politically speaking, but if your boss has rules, don’t break the rules! But why do I get the feeling this is the best thing to EVER happen to Olbermann’s ratings? I’m even tempted to DVR his show, just to see if he says anything about all this.

Um, oops? -BusyBeeBlogger
Oh it’s quite the day when those that comment on the news become the news. MSNBC’s left leaning political commentator, Keith Olbermann, had found himself out of a job due to not disclosing the fact he made donations to three Democrats running for Congress: Kentucky Senate candidate Jack Conway, and Arizona Reps. Raul Grijalva and Gabrielle Giffords.
MSNBC President Phil Griffin said in a statement Friday: “I became aware of Keith’s political contributions late last night. Mindful of NBC News policy and standards, I have suspended him indefinitely without pay.” [politico]

So why was Keith Olbermann suspended in the first place? I mean, can’t a man just donate money to political candidates if he feels like it?
NBC has a rule against employees contributing to political campaigns, and a wide range of news organizations prohibit political contributions — considering it a breach of journalistic independence to contribute to the candidates they cover. [politico]
Who knows if MSNBC is doing this only because Politico aired their dirty laundry, or if MSNBC would have done it on their own. I’m leaning it’s because of Politico. Not that I always trust Politico, but they do have this one right. So good for them.
Oh, and Chris Hayes was SUPPOSED to take Olbermann’s place on “Countdown With Keith Olbermann” BUT it was discovered that Hayes ALSO made contributions to two Democratic candidates in 2008 and 2009. Oopsie!

I would be the best president in the history of presidents. -BusyBeeBlogger
He’s already the unofficial spokesman for NYC to many, but could be be the President of the United States? Businessman, and developer, Donald Trump, has opened up about rumors he would be running for office in 2012.
“I’m totally being serious because I can’t stand what’s happening to the country. First time I am being serious about it. I’ve been asked for years to do it. And I had no interest. This is the first time I am — at least I’m considering it. That doesn’t say I’m going to do it … but I am seriously considering it.” [Fox]
What brought this up was a poll being reported in TIME Magazine. The poll asked a lot of questions about The Donald and a possible 2012 run. Trump says he had nothing to do with the poll, but found the results “amazing” and that he would have the “finesse” that the job of President needs.
“I think my whole life has sort of been about finesse when you get right down to it. I mean it’s — what running a country is, is to a certain extent we have to bring principle back and we have to also bring common sense back,” Trump said. “We have no common sense. We have no common sense. And we’re losing this country. Mark my words, if we keep going this way, we’re losing this country. It will no longer be great. It’s not respected to anywhere near what it used to be.
I have to admit, I am intrigued if Trump is serious about running. But most of all, I want to see “The Apprentice: Vice President” edition! Winner gets to help him run the country!
